Cleaning up the mess of battery cables.
My trailer battery's are a mess of wires, the posts were full from the factory then I added wires for the solar, inverter and others. I was thinking about mounting two of these power posts https://www...

Over on the positive side, you might have a battery disconnect switch that has the one fat wire to the battery and all pos wires from everywhere stacked up somehow to the outer end of that switch. The switch probably can't hold them all stacked so you need a positive bus to take some of them.
I do have a disconnect switch but 3 or 5? wires still hook to the pos battery cable. Guess I should track them down and see if they could be hooked into the disconnect switch, not sure what they go to but I can't think of anything that would require constant power in the trailer.
I will look into bus bars or a custom job as it would be nice to have something sealed to keep out the dirt. My trailer really needs something as the factory wires hang a little under the trailer and the few that come through a hole in the tongue are ridding on the metal since the hole is to big to keep the plastic grommet in place. One of these days I am going to hook a rock or sagebrush and rip some wires off.
Thanks for the input guys.
